Voting Machine Whistleblower: Anyone heard any developments???
Or in case you were unaware, here's a link: http://www.bluelemur.com/index.php?p=479
Anybody heard any development about this story? Seems like it would be getting more attention? The link above also has some of his interview, which is pretty interesting.

Former NASA programmer named Clinton Curtis says that he developed prototype vote-rigging software at the request of then-Florida state representative Tom Feeney. The affidavit has been turned over to the House Judiciary Committee, of which Feeney is now a member.

A spokesperson for the House Judiciary's Democrats said that Curtis did meet with several of its staff people who have put in calls to attempt to corroborate his story. The spokesperson also verified that other members of the media, including reporters from the New York Times, were working on the story.

2. bradblog
broke the story and updates as news breaks.

Much of the info in curtis' affidavit checks out but it's close to impossible to verify the story of the election fixing code without a snapshot of the source tree from the company that provided this stuff.

He re-created the program from memory but it seems like it's not a smoking gun untill someone sues the software company for source history, etc...
